"How about leaving the party to Brandon to prepare? He's been doing really well lately. ”

"Yes, you can hand over the work to him, and you only need to review the finances regularly in the future."

"Okay, I have to go back to York to follow up on the commercial development of Orange Manor."

"By the way, bodyguard, you have to find me a bodyguard." Isabella's story reminded Hall that as a person who was unusually afraid of death, he needed to find a bodyguard now. In this regard, he only trusts his own family for the time being.

After a few words with Caroline, the two went out side by side to leave the company.

Caroline looked at the two black-suited agents standing at the door: "Two gentlemen, you just heard about my company's business plan and need to sign a non-disclosure agreement. ”

The bald middle-aged man and his companion glanced at each other: "We have to ask the supervisor whether this is compliant, the legal terms ......"

"This is my business card, please remember to call me." Caroline smiled in a friendly smile of understanding and handed over a business card.

The bald middle-aged man hesitated a little, and finally honestly took the business card and pulled the unconvinced young colleague away.

Hall asked thoughtfully, "Is it really okay to do this?" ”

"There is a saying in the diplomatic world that 'diplomacy is part of a country's strength'. Hugo, you have the blood of nobility in your veins, and your surname has a glorious name. Sometimes you don't have to be restrained, you have to be strong, so as to maintain or improve the strength of the Hall family. ”

Caroline said with a smile: "These government departments are like hyenas, they don't have the concept of "politeness" in their brains, and they will only understand the tolerance and generosity of others as a sign of weakness. Of course, this is based on the situation of equal strength, if the difference in strength is too large, all skills will be ignored as a small trick. ”

Hall scratched his head, although he had been in the United States all year round in his previous life, he could be regarded as having seen it. But this is the first time that Caroline has experienced this theory.

Caroline pressed the elevator button, glanced up at the roof, and added in a whisper: "Politicians hold power, and people choose who they give power." And we, we give people choice. ”

“…… It's a wonderful remark, and I would have applauded on another occasion. Hall was silent.

Caroline reached out to help him straighten his collar: "So, don't take the next visit to the queen too seriously, treat it as a relaxing show, just enjoy the process with peace of mind." ”

The elevator door opened, and the two men went their separate ways.

Hall goes to see the newly bought house, and Caroline returns to the office to hand over the rest of the work to Brandon.

During this time, she had been busy with AEC Capital in London, and if she didn't return to Yorkshire, Helena would have to call Hall to ask for someone.

On Sunday, Hall returned to school early.

The final evaluation scheduled for today was canceled, and the black suits were collectively blinded, leaving him to move back and forth around campus.

"Is this an AW sniper rifle, and what accessories are there?"

On the roof of a residential building, Hall was idle and had nothing to do, watching the security guards set up guns to find something.

He is not a military fan, but shooting is a violent gene that male creatures are born with.

I once went to Las Vegas to attend the Big Sandy Shoo Gun Festival, and I was so happy to be bombarded with a cannon to scrap a car, and I have been playing with guns a lot ever since.

The black suit was expressionless and chewing gum and was silent, they have been lying on this commanding height for three days, and they have been on duty twenty-four hours a day since Friday.

Residents living downstairs take a high subsidy to stay in luxury hotels, and a radius of several hundred meters is theirs. The kid next to him somehow walked through layers of security and swaggered up.

Hall asked, "I heard that snipers always like to chew something when they are on a mission, to control their breathing rate?" ”

"Yes." The black suit looked up at him.

Hall smiled: "Don't be nervous, Her Majesty and I can climb up a few distant relatives for more than ten generations, I am not in danger." ”

The black suit replied briefly with a cool expression: "I can see it." The corners of his mouth twitched.

"Uh, to be honest, I'm quite interested in your gun, can you let me touch it?" Hall was overly demanding.

The black suit hesitated slightly, pinched the walkie-talkie headset and said a few words, retreated the magazine to empty the magazine and make way for the sniper position: "Sir, please don't make a dangerous move, our people are aiming here." ”

"Thank you very much, I know the rules." Holle leaned into the sniper position.

AW is a high-precision sniper rifle, and AWM is the grandchild of this gun, which is common in various shooting games in later generations.

He has played the civilian version, the police version and the military version are not available on the market.

After briefly playing for a while, he swept two figures from the binoculars, put down the gun and left contentedly.

Hall went downstairs to greet a middle-aged female secretary of Buckingham Palace who was walking towards her, and greeted an old man with a head of etiquette: "There is a new task?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Hall. We may have to take a moment to go to the campus gate to rehearse the process in advance. "The female secretary was very polite.

"Yes, tomorrow you will lay flowers in this position, a total of 25 steps...... Then you take the 4th position to the right of Her Majesty, leaving no one else to ...... It will be very noisy at that time, and if you can't hear what Her Majesty is saying, don't care, I'll give you a hint...... I'm standing behind you......"

"I have a question, can I let the media take a picture of the side when I lay flowers tomorrow, I don't want my privacy to be exposed." Finishing the final rehearsal, Hale asked.

The middle-aged female secretary thought for a while and replied: "No problem, we can blur your image, and the focus of those media should be Her Majesty." ”

"Thank you." Hall gave Aunt Caroline a thumbs up in her heart.

He doesn't want the media to report that he takes advantage of financial risks to make money, regardless of the country that is shorting, and the simple view of resisting financial capitalists is the mainstream of ordinary people all over the world.

But the media doesn't care about this, digging up the explosion point and making a lot of money is everything.

Without a special effort to shut them up, Hall couldn't imagine what he would be like in the newspaper.

All was ready, and the next morning, Her Majesty the Queen and her entourage appeared at Eton College.

The Eton boys, dressed in school uniforms, stood loosely in a row on the low wall at the entrance to the schoolyard, leaning against the fence and cheering.

The queen smiled kindly and beckoned to the students.

A handsome student representative with black hair and brown eyes, with a school uniform top open to reveal the colorful vest unique to the rising star inside, his face was filled with heartfelt joy, and he stepped forward with flowers in his hand.

Witness the afterglow of the empire on which the sun never sets, the queen who has become a symbol of the spiritual culture of England, and the vigorous elite students.

The past and the future come together in this moment.

"Click." A reporter from The Times recorded the footage with his camera.

After the welcome process, the group entered the school for a tour.

The queen doesn't talk much, just smiles kindly, and occasionally speaks in the most standard RP accent.

The seventy-year-old prince standing beside Hall spoke very closely: "...... Eton is a great school, and in a few years my son William will be here and become your alumnus......"

An impeccable smile tugged at the corner of Hall's mouth: "Yes, that's great, Eton College will definitely be an important part of Prince William's life." ”

"I think so too, but William's kid is very naughty, he rides a horse and plays squash everything, but he only goes to school......"

The seventy-year-old prince was both proud and distressed, like an ordinary parent who was troubled by the disobedience of his children.

It's a pity that when he heard a certain Asan-Brahmin student greet him in an unfamiliar London accent, he frowned, which flawed the image of the people.

"It doesn't matter, you still have to be a trainee for more than 30 years before you can make your debut, and you have time to practice acting." Hall's mind echoed Aunt Caroline's words - this was a show.

Thinking of this, Hall reserved and praised "That is the fine tradition of the aristocracy", and then closed his mouth and stopped talking, just quietly listened attentively.

In these years, the royal family and the aristocracy are not on one side, at least not completely. And the old lady is still alive, and the seventy-year-old crown prince cannot fully represent the royal family.

Hall hadn't carefully understood the political twists and turns, but his instincts told him that he didn't need to use Mr. Prince as a tool to brush up on favorability.

A noble lord who has no intention of participating in politics but has real power, does he need to kneel and lick the prince who has not yet established the position of prince?

The latter should be glad that it is not the Roman Empire now, or he will have to kneel and lick the dermatitis of the former......

After more than two hours of a show, Hall's face was stiff with a smile, and Her Majesty was still full of energy and couldn't say goodbye to her classmates.

A middle-aged man with a hooked nose and a cold face appeared out of nowhere: "Hugo Hall, right, you did very well today." ", patted him on the shoulder.

"You are?" Hall asked.

A friendly smile appeared on Hooknose's face, and he said to himself, "Say hello to Baron Helena for me." ”

Hall nodded, and watched as the other party quickly got into a car and left, RN ......

"What do our student representatives think, you're really in the limelight today, huh?!"

With a familiar force over his shoulder, Hall raised his arm and slapped the elbow of Los Angeles: "Aren't you assigned to the task of the farewell queue?" ”

"Shit, you're going to knock my lungs out." Anse El clutched his chest exaggeratedly, "I'm a rising star, okay?" Rising stars shine even in the queue......"

"Don't listen to his bragging, it's actually him who swapped tasks with the classmates who acted as the backdrop for you in the auditorium." White dismantled the platform.

Hall couldn't help but laugh: "yes, I didn't pay attention to him, you want to be in the newspaper?" ”

"I'm a rising star, just like you! Although I didn't compete for the job of student representative, I was able to get into the newspaper through hard work. Anse El lifted his chin.

Hall and White laughed, "White, you see my silver cuffs, oh, why can't I find them." ”

There is also a difference between the Rising Stars, the top Rising Stars can only have silver cuffs, and Anse El does not.

The trio laughed a few words, and Hall made an invitation: "I bought a house, and this weekend is a party, you guys come over and help." ”

"Aha?! Pretty, what kind of party are you going to throw, can I bring Rachel to it? White asked excitedly.

"Of course, a party without girls can only be called a potluck." Hall raised an eyebrow, "But who is Rachel?" Sounds like an American sweetheart? ”

White blushed: "Well, my dance partner at the last networking event. ”

"You're the one who talked to people about the future of mobile phone business?" Hall was very surprised, this can provoke the girl......

Anse Air was also shocked and opened his mouth: "Isn't it, you guy actually have a follow-up?" What about you, Hugo ......" got an affirmative answer and scolded "Fake".

"What's wrong with you?" White asked, confused.

Anse Elle said in an indignant tone: "We said that we were not interested in falling in love when we were good at studying, but you betrayed me at a networking event!" ”

Hall blinked blankly: "No, you're not interested in a relationship, why were you so enthusiastic about Charlotte last time?" Don't you tell me it's just to find a dance partner? ”

"Or else?" Anse El was right, paused and added melancholy: "The point is that you are all very enthusiastic about your dance partners, of course I have to do the same, I thought you were all having fun, and I didn't want to lose to you." ”

“……”

Hall was speechless, treating chasing girls as a game, should he say that he had a pure heart, or should he say that he ...... has reached a high level that ordinary people can't understand.

However, it is not difficult to understand that this happened to the Eton boys, and the psychological effects of the long-term closed environment cannot be solved by a few social activities.

The BBC has published a documentary about it, and Eton College's unique campus culture has made many alumni lack gender affection after entering the society.

"So you're not interested in Charlotte? Let's be honest. We're not going to laugh at you, it's not a game, you don't have to compete with me to see who is more attractive. Hall wanted to help his good friend, and Anse El had borrowed 50,000 pounds from him.

Ansel thought seriously for a moment: "I...... I want to graduate with the best grades, I don't have time...... Well, I'm not interested in her! Don't you think that girls are boring creatures, they only talk about cosmetics, clothes, desserts, ......"

Anse El let go of his thoughts as he spoke, gushing on and on about his opinions, and trying to convince his two friends to change their minds.

Hall was terrified, worried that the goods would say, "I don't like women."

Back in the dorm, Hall took out two photos and handed them to him and White: "Last time Charlotte said she was going to send me a gift, she secretly took a picture of us that day.

I was going to tell you the shipping address, bro, actually girls are funny, you need to be patient to dig ......"

"Well, I misunderstood her, her photography skills are great." Anse Air has a unique perspective.

Hall was choked to death: "It's pretty good." ”

Outside, three boys in tuxedos are lazily leaning against a wall, looking at the sky, each with a smile on their lips or a melancholy expression.

Inside, through the floor-to-ceiling windows, a blonde girl sits on a low sofa with a delicate afternoon tea snack in front of her. The girl was graceful and brace, not knowing what she was thinking.

The first-class light and shadow composition perfectly blends the two pictures, and it looks like the impression of Britain in people's minds, as if Britain is like this.

White flipped through the photo, and on the back there was a line of delicate letters written in artistic style, reading: "Romance to death." ”
